Made a bunch of dummy moves. My Ipad has never been backed up.

But the short of it is I had 9.3.5 and jailbroken Ipad 2 using cydia.

Followed instructions on this youtube link, which had me change "ProductBuildVersion," "ProductCopywrite," & "ProductVersion" to ios 6, with the idea that I could then load ios 8.4.1.

That didn't work, and now my ipad says "This version of ios software is current version." And I am stuck in ios 6. Lesson learned, hopefully there is a wizard among you that can show me how get past this road block.

Put the device in DFU mode, and let iTunes restore the latest iOS version your iPad 2 can take.
